Football / Re: Suggestions to Maturana
« on: June 25, 2008, 12:27:08 PM »
People, all yuh need to get off Maturana's back. He getting blame because he didn't pick we favorites. Maturana is not the reason we lost the first game Stern and Scotland are - they throw away goals, is simply as that. I can't believe that some ah all yuh want to go to 2010 WC with the 2006 team - ah team that ketch the ass to qualify, and we strikers older and slower - Stern is a loafer, and as much as I respect what he has done for our country over the years, and I do see him as a footballing hero, let the man focus on his club career, and past the baton.

Coop's is correct, we are not always willing to give our coaches the opportunity to work with their charges. Building a team is an on-going process. Is almost like we expect miracles from our coaches. I for one am happy with Maturana simply because he's willing to work with the home based, something Beenie and Wim weren't willing to do. Our footballing future is dependent on our home based, believe it or not - our past proved that. Our nation's footballing glory did not begin with WC 2006, It began decades before.

Having a team full of foreign based will never guarantee any WC spot. What will guarantee it is a team training together constantly. All yuh fail to realize that even with our foreign based we were finding it difficult to defeat other CFU teams full of local players , coached by local coaches, and no pro league. As I have said before quality players doesn't always translate into a quality team. Our country was defeating other Caribbean teams without challenge decades ago simply because our teams were training together all the time - Mexico and the USA are perfect examples.

We may not like Maturana's picks, but we must remember that we do not have a National football philosophy like other major footballing nations, so we are dependent on the philosophy of each coach we hire. I have a question - Given the opportunity to select 3 T&T players to recommend to Aston Villa during their visit years ago, how many would have recommended Yorke? 

Men asking for Beenie and Wim to come back, I don't want them back - they with all their experience did absolutely nothing to assist our local football, they dogged our league and local players, and never saw it fit to make quality suggestions, they were leeches, just like their pay-master.
      You could not have said it any better,WELL SAID!  :beermug: :beermug:

Copps Baygo boy,nuff respect.

Im my opinion, if Dr Pacho cannot make his own decisions in who to pick, in who HE truly wants to see play in what ever spot, then i have little respect for him. If he is truly a professional, he would respectfully tell TTFF to back the eff off with respect to the selections.  to me, the fact that it appares that he is incapable o doing that, means he is lacking some leadership qualities, and I dare say we have the wrong chief in the hut.

We need a new professional chief who making his own decisions, and picking who ever he want to effin pick, and know how to tell TTFF to backoff.

Mr Maturana, is not that man. At least, so it seams.. As a result, he hadda go, I dont believe in him..  >:(

But allyuh doh kill me tho, I just giving my POV

If you check CONCACAF history since 1989, lots of supposed top teams have struggled immensely in the early rounds, and come good and peak when it matters, you guys rememebr Barbados beating Costa Rica in Barbados, then CR coming back to qualify?
Football is not 1+1 = 2 as Beenie used to say, so the fact that we struggled to beat Bermuda does not mean we are automatic crap and will lose heavily in the next round - how come only 1 week earlier we were 1 minute away from beating Jamaica who won their tie 13-0 or something like that? Didnt we lose to this same Ja team 2-4 in POS in July 2000, only to go on and romp past our semi final group one week after that ja beating??

I would prefer you use another example. We may have romped through the semifinal round in 02, but we get we ass handed to us in the Hex and dat same Yardie team beat us coming and going...

I personally never call for Pacho head but, I'm not sure if you remember what happen with Costa Rica in 2002, but after they barely make it out of that semifinal round (loss to Barbados, play off with Guatemala) they fire their Brazilian coach and bring in Guimaraes for the Hex ...

EH.. I want his head here in place of leno's own.

Who here ever play savannah football?

That football different than any other kind of football in the world.

And it could be the Queen's Park Savannah, Aranguez Savannah, or the savannah in Pinto Road Arima -- once is in Trinidad...

EVERY SPECTATOR IS A COACH

Everybody could tell the winger where to stand up, how to make a run, how he loafing, or the right technique to cross the ball.

The center link never knocking the ball enough... the sweeper always playing wild... the keeper not diving enough...

IN TRINIDAD EVERY SPECTATOR IS A COACH

Allyuh let Maturana coach nah.

Is years the man doing it and he have results to show too.

Relax, sit down, and watch.  And leave Maturana to do his job.
Recently Domenech say something about France having 60 million national team managers...However, Trinis have a funny way of feeling we unique with everything.

I go tell you where we unique though. We are the only country where the biggest spectator coach of them all, a man who never kick a lime in the botanic gardens, let alone the Savannah, could fire qualified coaches whenever it please him for doing less shite than Maturana put down in the last  6 months.
Talk to Stewart Fevrier, talk to Vranes, talk to Wim and talk to BSC about "letting the coach coach..." Some of alyuh who singing that same refrain was busy running up alyuh mouth of some of these same fellas, even on Beenie. And we keeping quiet ent stop Jack from running them.

So as the saying go "Who in the Kitchen does feel de heat" and none of we ent paying licence for we mouth. If alyuh want to stay quiet and watch Jack and dese jokers he controlling turn ALYUH national team into a table football set dat is alyuh business...

AMEN.. Thank u Geeeezusss!!

wait nuh, men still reasoning dis ting out?

let me guess..

allyuh toying with the remote possibility that should we get our house in order, then good old guus hiddink (who turn down Chelsea, England, Real Madrid and just about any other great team in World Football) will come running to Trinidad for the great challenge of coaching our vast and untapped pool of limitless talent that is the Trinidad and Tobago football team ???

steups.

then again, I forget how I like to play fantasy league yes.  :-\

Stop calling for coach to come and go. We all know the problem and who / whom needs to GO. Until then T&T Football will always and I say always SUFFER. Blaming coach after coach is only white washing the true issue.

NAH!!! Let Pacho go he way... !!

I doubt jack will be willing to pay hiddink what he is worth and i don't expect him to coach a side as small as ours although leo did.  Leo was trying to get back in the mix, hiddink is in the mix.

Suppose that is the man specialty.. Making big dreams a reality:d

This guy is the zen master when it comes to taking ordinary teams and making them competitive on the world stage. He did it with South Korea, Australia and now Russia. He has  coaching down to a science. Jack Warner should pull some strings to get this guy to be the coach of Trinidad as soon as his contract end with Russia in 2010.  I am just thinking about the future.

Sighs.. Boy Only if eh..

Bu Jackoffasour will only play plitics with his appointment as well .. saying that TTFF have no money and this and that and the gov , this and dat..

But boy. ONLY if. We can dream..

Somebody please, help mih nah... wasn't it de same 3-5-2 system we play and shut out Bermuda yesterday?  So was it de system or was it de players last week Sunday that we need to blame? (yeah, yeah...blame de coach fuh havind de 'wrong' players on de field)

Also... does it matter if yuh hear 6 months... or if yuh one good ezz only allow yuh tuh hear 3?

Finally... who is Fabello ???

Grazie


I really thought it was 4-4-2

because they say telesford went to right back and M. Edwards was left back... which leaves Hislop and Lawrence in the centre....  unless one of dem was playing DM  ???

I am 99% sure it was a 4-4-2... Alvin was saying it was.. even tho patriot say 3-5-2  but I think he get that wrong... It was a 4-4-2 with Telesford and M.Edwards playing RB and LB.. and Carlos and K.Daniel playing RW and LW

Ahhh ys I think you might be correct Small Mag.

Patrot will clear it up when he reach back I guess

1. The ref "forgets" to send off Whitley after second yellow.

2. The second T and T goal was during Bermudan substitution.

Yep, no corruption here. "Does a "Joe Public" cheque work for you, Senor Ref?" "No problema, Jefe Warner".

T and T... a good team with a better cheat behind the scenes.


I hate to sound like sour grapes and as I mentioned I am Bermudian and was at the game.  And it was STOLEN.   The yellow card blunder, the goal shot into the net during our substitution (Before the wistle to resume play)  STOLEN! 
The ref needs to be fired......... I can handle a lost BUT I cant handle the smell of a Rat.... 

Welome to main stream football.

We go through that shit all the time.

It obvious 2 anybody hwo have a lil sense and eh a Wim hater that d man is doin JW biddin. You make a big point of lookin at tapes and u find Whitley aloneeeeeeeeeee.

You hear 6 mths and eh learn d language just tink Fabello

His decision 2 play 3 5 2 in d 1st WCQ alone should b a good enough reason 2 sent him packin back 2 he dental practice.

When we 1 down he sub d midfielder and bring on a defender but then again I eh know football.

It obviously have some division on dat team I hear he say bout man attidute problem but I eh hear nutten bout fixin it except droppin Ince because we all know bout he attitude.

But then again me eh know football


According to Alvin, ince get dropped cause de Goal keeping coach felt Jan Micheal was faster on his feet and it was time to give him a bligh.

LOL.. It wasntbecause of "Attitude" issues. lol. pressure.

Not many could have predicted the exact course of subsequent events and so he is asking whether true players would have made the same decision knowing what they know now.
eh?
true players?
I dont think that anyone would have asked for their money if they knew what Jackula would do

But is their money?!!

And dont forget, this man took a 13 mil Us endorsement from Addidas and magically turn it into 12 mil.

In the space of one day a mil buss it.. Jackoffasour is a crook. It needed to be one.

Hell yes it worth it.. That biacth name jackoo was trying to give dem dirt and tell dem they getting sugar.

He cud haul he arse. Dem men en black list them selves. To ask ifit was worth is, is to suggest the blacklisted players are at fault for the detriment of the football.

Gombey Warrior...and for all Bermudians who feeling aggrieved.

Yuh coach make a basic school boy error. It just shows how naive your team is.

YOU DO NOT MAKE A SUB WHEN DEFENDING A CORNER OR A FREE KICK.

Also did you player step on the field and the ref said play on? If so he is correct.

Where in the laws of the game does it say you have to wait till a player gets into his formation? Once he steps on the field he is in play.

Doh study it...we get goal in we arse looking to form wall and man touch ball and slap it into goal. We get goal from corner looking to set up men on first and last post as well.

You do not switch off on set pieces and if anything you should have put a player near the ball to delay play.

But these are things you learn with experience.

Next time.

USA fedup do we dem shit.. Lawrd
